Box mods have become a lot more popular lately – mostly because they offer a level of flexibility and customization to your vaping experience that many other devices can’t really compete with. The main difference between a box mod and a mechanical mod is simply this: that mechanical mods take power directly from a lithium-ion battery and apply it to an atomizer, while box mods take this power and regulate it before supplying power to the atomizer. This regulation generally comes from a chip, and the term ‘box mod’ has become popular with the device because all of these components are usually housed in a rectangular-type of container – or a ‘box’.

Box mods definitely have a place in the E-cig marketplace. Most serious vapers, at some point or another, turn their attention in awe toward the small, yet extremely powerful devices – seeing the possibility for better voltage regulation or increased power output as definite benefits over their eGo counterparts – which are usually a bit more limited.

But are box mods for everyone?

There are definitely some mods that are less complicated than others – and in this page, we’re actually going to break up the mods into several different categories. When you find the category that sounds the best for your experience level, you can review the listed mods and start looking at what’s out there.

This page might not be a last-stop-shop for your box mod shopping needs – but it can definitely serve as a good starting point. Some of the best UK box mods on the market are featured on this page – so you should definitely be able to use it to learn about some different products in hope that you’ll have a better time of finding what you’re looking for.

How Does The TPD Affect Box Mods?

This is a very common question… and for good reason. The TPD has done a lot to change the way some UK vapers enjoy their habit – but the simple answer to this question is that the TPD hasn’t actually changed how box mods work at all!

Yes, some of the tanks will now be unavailable due to the new 2ml maximum capacity rule… but aside from that, box mods are good to go, and you will be happy to hear that any and all box mods that you bought or could have bought before the TPD went through will still be legal to sell or use… even if the tanks are a little bit different.

Box mods are awesome because they offer a lot of raw power in a small, controlled package. They’re safer and have more options than a mechanical mod, but they are usually more interchangeable than vape pen components are – making them an awesome and future-proof option for vapers of any experience level.

Quick FAQ About Box Mods

A: A box mod is an electronic cigarette device that uses the power of a lithium ion battery to atomize flavoured vapour. The main difference between a box mod and a vape pen is that box mods tend to use larger batteries and contain more on-board electronics to regulate the vaping experience. You’re much more likely, for example, to get features like variable voltage, variable wattage, or temperature control with a box mod than you are with any other type of vaping device.

A: Some of them are a bit more advanced – but it depends on the mod. Temperature control mods, for example, require a special atomizer to utilize the TC mode, while other mods may require you to set your own voltage and/or wattage levels. In this sense, box mods can certainly be a bit more complicated to use – but they also offer a lot more flexibility.

A: Do you enjoy changing settings to maximize your experience? Do you like the idea of a more powerful battery and larger vapour clouds? Are you ok with spending a bit more money to get something that’s going to last longer and work better than smaller vaping devices? If so, then it might be time for you to buy a box mod.

A: Because they generally crank more wattage and voltage out of their battery, and a lot of them use larger batteries as well. Since they’re supplying more power to the atomizer, it can vapourize the E-liquid at a faster rate – which creates more vapour.

A:Not all box mods come with batteries – but some of them do. It’s always a good idea to research this before you purchase a device. Reading through the description should reveal whether the mod comes with a battery or not. If not, this should also help you to figure out what type of battery to order.

A: Not necessarily – though we do recommend that you use either max VG E-liquid or 100% VG E-liquid if you’re going to be sub-ohm vaping. These blends tend to work a bit better with sub ohm atomizers – but really, in the grand scheme of things, any E-liquid will work.

Everything You Need To Learn And Know About Box Mod Safety & Use

Box mods have become a staple of the vaping movement, for a few different reasons. Simply put, they are among the more powerful and serious of the vaping devices. They often pack-in more power than other devices, give off thicker clouds, produce more flavour, and give you the ability to vape to a more extreme degree, than any other type of device on the market.

But… box mods are not altogether simple. There are some that are simpler than others, but there are still a few things that are important to understand about them. So on this page, we’re going to talk about some basic box mod knowledge, and share some vital facts that any up-and-coming box mod enthusiast ought to know before getting started.

Vape Mod Glossary

Here is a brief, yet important glossary of terms that you should learn to recognize and understand when it comes to box mods.

Air Flow Control (or AFC): This is a control that you will usually find on box mod tanks that helps you to adjust the airflow, or how difficult it is to pull air through the device when you inhale.

Amps (or Amperage, or Amperes): This is a term that is used to describe a measurement of a flow of energy along a circuit. Batteries that power box mods will have an AMP rating. Basically, batteries that have a higher amperage rating are better for coils that use lower resistances.

Atomizer: This is a name for the part of a tank that houses the coil. Often, atomizers are replaceable and screw into the tank.

Battery: This is what powers the box mod. Usually, 18650 IMRs are used to power them… but this may depend on the mod. Some mods come with built-in batteries, while others allow you to change them out if they wear out. Every mod needs power to operate, and batteries are almost always what provide this power.

Coil: This is the part of the atomizer that heats up to vapourize the E-liquid. It usually consists of a ‘coil’ of wire. They must be replaced periodically, and are an essential part of the box mod. They’re pretty much always housed within the tank, inside of the atomizer.

DNA: The DNA75 is a chip made by a company called Evolv. It is basically a variable wattage board.

Dripping (referring to a ‘Drip Tip’): Sometimes, the term ‘drip tip’ just refers to the mouthpiece. But there are also occasions where it is referring to a special head that you use to ‘drip’ e-liquid. When you ‘drip,’ you simply wet a cotton wick instead of filling a tank. You wet it slowly by ‘dripping’ e-liquid onto it in small amounts.

mAh: This stands for milliampere-hour, and is a measurement that is used to describe a battery’s energy-storage capacity. It is used to help measure how long a battery will last before it needs to be charged back up.

A To Z About Resistance

Understanding resistance is key to understanding box mod vaping (or any vaping, actually). But this is even more true with box mod vaping than with most other types of vaping, because usually box mods give you more of a choice of different types of coils than other vaping devices.

For example… you can often choose whether or not you want to sub-ohm vape with box mods. You can also (usually) choose from several different types of sub-ohm coils (or regular coils). Coils come in a wide range of different resistances, and sub-ohm vaping is technically any vaping that utilizes a coil with a resistance lower than 1.0 Ohm.

But in order to understand what this actually means, you also have to understand exactly how coils work. Atomizers, and subsequently, the coils within them, are what heat-up to vapourize E-liquid.

Coils have a resistance rating, and when you apply enough current to the coil, the resistance causes the coil to heat up and ‘waste’ energy. This heat is what is used to atomize the E-liquid. It’s really the same principle that applies to any sort of electrical element-type device that heats up (stove-top elements and space heaters are valid examples), except on a smaller scale.

A lot of people think that a higher resistance rating means more heat – but this isn’t true. When it comes to resistance, and in turn, E-cig coils, the lower the resistance, the more heat you can expect to get out of it. So in other words, if you have a certain wire coil and you provide current to it, it will heat up. If you put a more powerful current (higher wattage or voltage) through the same wire coil, it will heat up more. If you use a coil with a lower resistance (thinner wire), then it will also heat up more than it would have with the thicker coil (higher resistance coil).

So if you have a box mod with a choice of two different coils, a 1.0 Ohm coil and a 0.5 Ohm coil, the 0.5 ohm coil will produce more heat, but will also use up more of your battery capacity faster.

Resistances can range anywhere from around 0.06 Ohms to 3.5 Ohms in some cases, but the vast majority of popular box mods today utilize coils that fall somewhere between 0.2 Ohms and 1.5 Ohms. Of course, the resistance of the coil is not the only thing that will determine how much heat your E-cig produces, either. The wattage (or voltage) that you deliver to the coil with the battery will also play a part.

In such cases, turning up the wattage is like increasing the power… while decreasing it is like decreasing the power.

A To Z About Temperature Control Mods

Temperature Control mods are becoming more and more common. In fact, it’s actually difficult now to find new box mods that don’t come with a temperature control option… but this isn’t necessarily surprising.

Temperature control and variable wattage/variable voltage are really the same thing… it’s just that what you are measuring for reference is different. When you set the variable wattage of your device at a certain level, you are setting the power of the current that you’re supplying to the coil. But when you set the Temperature Control level at a certain level or degree, you are adjusting how hot you want the coil to get.

All this does is increase or decrease the wattage/voltage anyway… it’s just a different frame of reference. Both things will accomplish the same objective. They are just looking at two different numbers.

Most temperature control mods have a working range of 200F degrees to 600F degrees. The ‘magic spot’ in this range where you will get the best vape will depend on a few different things, like the consistency of your E-liquid and what type of blend you are using.

But unlike with variable wattage, with temperature control, you don’t have to factor in what type of battery you are using, or the rating of your coil resistance, mostly because all of these things are auto-calculated for you when you use temperature control… which is why it is becoming more and more popular.

If you run your box mod based on wattage, then changing coil resistances will change your settings. But this isn’t true when you are using temperature control. Most TC mods carry on-board chips that automatically sense and calculate all of these things for you as soon as you fire it up… allowing you to set the temperature of the coil as you see fit.

The one downside to temperature control, however, is that it requires you to buy a specific kind of coil. Most TC coils are made from either nickel or titanium. The regular coils that you get with most tanks are not compatible with TC mode in the vast majority of devices, and they won’t work if you try to use them.

Most TC mods tend to work the best when you set the temperature to somewhere between 392F and 480F. It is also usually best to start low, and then slowly work your way up to find the temperature that works best for your preferences. Setting up a TC coil also involves a few steps. You will generally need to lock in the base resistance of the coil at room temperature, and set the recommended wattage for the coil you are using in preparation for using TC mode.

Some devices may also require a certain, specific type of TC coil to work properly… so it is really, really important that you read and follow the directions provided with your device when you start TC vaping. It is not always a ‘plug in and go’ situation with temperature control mods… and the best way to avoid problems is to educate yourself with the specifics of your device before you get started.

How To Stay On The Safe Side While Using A Box Mod

The good thing about most modern regulated box mods is that they are generally outfitted with a range of safety features that, for the most part, keep you from putting yourself into any real danger.

This is not true with unregulated mechanical mods or unregulated box mods, though! If you are planning on using an unregulated mod, then stop right now and do a lot of research to make sure that you are doing it correctly… because using the wrong kind of battery with the wrong type of coil (or the wrong type of switch, or even correct, but poor-quality components) could cause serious problems, which could result in injury if something were to happen to the battery.

You could burn out a coil, blow out a coil, burn up your device… or even worse, cause the battery to start on fire or explode.

The vast majority of accidents and injuries that occur within the vaping community happen because people don’t charge their devices correctly. Most of them don’t happen during use, thanks mostly in part to the safety features that are now included on most regulated box mods.

But to stay on the safe side, here are some general guidelines that you should always follow when shopping for or using box mods of any kind.

1… Do not use mechanical mods/unregulated mods unless you are 100% sure you know what you are doing and/or are an actual electrician who understands electrical current enough to avoid making a mistake.

2… If you are going to buy a box mod, buy a new, name-brand, regulated box mod from a reputable E-cig company that comes equipped with a full range of safety features.

3… Read and follow all of the directions for using and charging your box mod. Do not deviate from these directions. This means using the right coils, using the right batteries, and charging your batteries with the correct type of charger the right way.

4… If you notice your mod or battery getting uncharacteristically hot, or if you notice any sort of damage to the battery or device whatsoever, then remove the batteries and discontinue use of the product until you figure out what the problem is.

5… Buy a charger for your batteries that is fully equipped with a range of safety features. We recommend the Nitecore Intellichargers for 18650 batteries. These are our favourites and they do an outstanding job.

6… Remember that regulated mods can still get damaged and malfunction. If Eliquid or water manages to seep into the electronics, for example, then you could end up with safety problems. Sometimes, this can lead to mods ignoring the cutoff that usually keeps them from overheating, which can be a fire hazard. If you see any indication that your mod might be leaking, if you drop it in water, or if you detect any sort of damage on it whatsoever, discontinue use and take it to a reputable vape shop or return it to the company for a replacement.

7… Remember that this list of rules is NOT complete. To stay completely safe, you need to continue to educate yourself. You need to read your manual, find out what to keep an eye out for, and use/charge your device correctly. We always do our best to give sound advice – but remember that it is your responsibility to vape safely… and that all begins with education.

Use these tips to be as safe as possible, but don’t stop here. This is not an all-inclusive safety course, and these rules are very, very rudimentary and not necessarily complete. To list every single rule that you should follow while vaping would just not be possible – but you can find out basically everything you need to know by reading your Box mod manual and following the instructions to the letter.
